With an Automatic Transmission, not having high temperature is more difficult and more important. The automatic transmission relies on high pressure fluids pumped through the radiator to maintain cooling. Good maintenance is essential to avoid spontaneous overheating. As the car warms up, the transmission temperature rises. Keep the coolant at the right level without ignoring the cooling problem. Ensure that there are no leaks in the transmission and that the transmission fluid is at the correct level. As long as your car is well maintained, you don't have to worry.

With a Manual Transmission, you don't usually have many methods to keep it in normal temperature conditions. It's simple, reliable and doesn't require a lot of liquid pumping to maintain cooling through a radiator or complex system. The manual transmission is a closed system, a box filled with transmission oil and gear. As long as the transmission fluid is topped, you don't have to worry. Also, as long as there are no leaks, you won't need too much maintenance. Always check the liquid level if the transmission is overheated, if you have difficulty moving the gears when the vehicle is hot, or if you notice that the transmission is making too much noise. Excessive heat results in prolongation of parts, destruction of bearings and rapid wear of engine parts. Otherwise, keep the recommended gear oil and enjoy the quality of the ride.
